I know. Sacrilege. I have not done it. I carry all the needed cleaning stuff in the frunk. But a friend of mine did and he told me it felt very odd. But if I really needed to do it, I would do it quickly and get heck outta there.

I have done it. Stretch legs, use ATM, buy a soda, wash windows, get a packet of beef jerky.... Some habits die hard. Funny, the old Tesla website used to encourage one to calculate the value of time saved not stopping at gas stations into the savings equations, but sometimes ya gotta stop for a slurpee...

I feel going to gas stations is a great evangelism technique. Inevitably someone asks about the car. And I just love blocking a gas pump..... kinda sticking it back to them in some small way.

For my daily driving, I usually stop at the same gas station that we'd used for years to gas up other cars.... I know the owner and I've given them enough money over the years in gas and mechanical repairs I figure I can use their squeegee and leave.

In my experience at any random gas station is there are enough cars pulling in or leaving that no one really notices. Go for it!

What I like about going to the gas station is getting the car washed without having to buy gas. In Canada washing your car regularly throughout the winter is important to remove all the salt and guck off your car.
